Random pictures from the year lie below the cut, in chronological order. I’d make some sort of smug dial-up comment here, but jedimentat wants me to hurry up and do yoga like the enlightened man that she thinks I am.
I just realized, looking back at my first post of 2007, that jedimentat was the first person to comment on my LJ this year. And now, like, we’re together and stuff. So odd.
Last year, I posted a recap meme. Instead of filling out the poll that everyone and their grandmother took, I’m just going to do that again.
Another year passed. It had its highs and lows, but was overall a great year, and not just due to the last few months. Learned a lot, in and out of the classroom, about the world and about myself. Met some awesome people, found myself in some fun and not so fun situations, and came out happier with a tale to tell at the far end of it all. And really, isn’t that all I ever hope for?
Happy New Year, everyone who uses the Gregorian calendar. Thanks for helping make an excellent 2007, and let’s have an amazing 2008!
To those who celebrate, I hope everyone had/is having a wonderful Christmas. Just got back from visiting cessna182‘s in-laws out in Brooklyn, from where we called quillter on the phone. Breakfast was with jedimentat‘s parents before they set out for a holiday season trip.
It’s been an entertaining holiday in terms of gift-giving. So far three gifts purchased by me have been duplicates of something the person just got that day or would get a day later. And three of my gifts I almost ended up buying myself, in two cases spoiling the surprise. I guess that just means that great minds are thinking alike, or I really know people/they know me as well as others know them/me. Or something. Whatever. Sleep now.
Oh, and I have a 360, thanks to jedimentat! Because my old Xbox Live Gamertag “Kingfox” was inactive for over a year (damn you WoW), I can’t get it back. That, as others have said a few times before, is utter horseshit. Anyway, if you’ve got a 360 add “KingfoxNinja” to your friends and mourn the loss of Kingfox.
Srsly, bed now.
October of last year, I posted about KINGFOX brand USB keys from China. Not to be content with tarnishing my good handle as a source of cheap data storage, KingFox Enterprises Limited recently CCed me on an email by mistake, letting me see their recent endeavors. They mostly sell electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes). But they also sell sex products. That’s just no good.

As everyone else and their grandmother has posted to their journals.
You want a holiday card (possibly probably not arriving before your winter holiday of choice, but before some), you leave a comment with your address. Comments screened.
Also, if you’ve done a similar post or poll, and I haven’t replied to it, and it’s not too late, include a link please.
blackbytes and utini2 had managed to avoid the epic hip-hopera until now. Now they can’t tear themselves away.
(6:19:49 PM) petemagyar: RUSS!
(6:19:55 PM) Kingfox: Heya.
(6:20:04 PM) petemagyar: Bad news
(6:20:11 PM) petemagyar: are you sitting down?
(6:20:15 PM) Kingfox: Yup.
(6:20:21 PM) Kingfox: And at home for the first time in ages.
(6:20:31 PM) petemagyar: OH ok.
(6:20:41 PM) petemagyar: Rue du Jardin is closed
(6:20:44 PM) petemagyar: for good. :’(
Noooooo!
shmivejournal: it’s not as good a song
shmivejournal: and the lyrics are forgettable except for the chorus
kingfox: Oh no.
kingfox: Have you heard it lately? It’s got some great rhymes.
shmivejournal: lj poll time
shmivejournal: you’re wrong
shmivejournal: “i know more lyrics to” a or b
shmivejournal: go
kingfox: I don’t think it’s better, but it’s comperable.
shmivejournal: it’s not
shmivejournal: also, sloppy joe
kingfox: Fine, lj poll.
